A-26c Jersey Bounce question. Please advise
I've been working on Monograms 1/48 a-26c for some time now and need some advice on decals. About half of the sources I've seen (mainly decal sets) have the nacelles black with the underside wings black as well. The other half have only the nacelles black with the under wings nmf. I've elected to go with the black nacelles and underside of the wings black (see photo).
From what I see on A-26's it was red letters and a standard red white and blue national insignia. Interesting side note, a B-17 and a B-24 were named Jersey Bounce
Thanks for the input @beauslx !
Interestingly enough when I was in college I went on a choir tour to upstate New York. We were assigned host families for the night from the church we performed at. As I was unpacking my bag in the guest bedroom of the host family I saw a shadow box on the wall- upon closer inspection it turned out to have a medal of honor in it! Come to find that the woman who was hosting us was the daughter of Forest Vosler who served as a radio operator on board the B-17 Jersey Bounce Jr. That you mentioned and was awarded the medal of honor. I never forgot the name of the man or the plane and 15 years later I still intend to build a kit of that aircraft when time (and space) permit
@dbutlr Wow, interesting linkage. That would be nice to see the B-17 modeled after Jersey Bounce Jr.
Though my experience on the subject is limited, I would agree with Robert's comments, David.
Also no useful advice from my side, David @dbutlr, but I agree with the comments of Robert @beauslx.
